I'm seeing the same issue if I use the "Temperature and Tint" setting. If I use Natural Gray or Skin Tone ... the WB achieved with the eye dropper is fine ... if using T&T ... the tint shifts to the extreme green side of the slider. The temperature holds pretty well, but the tint ... not so much.

It has absolutely nothing to do with monitor color profiles ... I tested on images shot in the studio with monolight pro strobe/softbox combination and a color chart ... same image with WB set using Aperture 3.4.5 showed a temperture of 4422K and tint of -1 ... Using Aperture 3.5 the result was 4465k -45 tint ... that's just way too much green ... A different monitor profile won't correct that issue.

Since only RAWs are affected, which camera brand/model are you using? Just one or a variety? Could it be a bug in the converter for this/these camera/s? Just suggesting, I am still not offered the update so cannot check with my own RAWs.

I cannot replicate this issue. Upon import of new images (RAW) I tested the White Correction using the eye dropper. No issue at all, despite reports here to the contrary.

In the previous round of this issue, it seems to have only impacted people who did not directly download new photos into Aperture, but rather were using some third party software to first do some processing of them.

The previous issue required some sort of fix not only from Apple, but also an update of the aforementioned third party software (Nik apps in that case.)

Ernie .... I NEVER use any other software prior to importation into Aperture, I don't even have any Nik apps or plugins ... and have not invoked any plugins or even Photoshop since upgrading to 3.5 ... This issue shows for images already imported, and newly imported, untouched images.

So far, I have seen at least a dozen other users who can replicate the issue ... various brands/models of cameras involved.
